Why are free ionic bonds of little relevance and relatively unlikely to form in living organisms?   Cells are composed mostly of water, which interferes with ionic bonds between free ions. Cells are largely hydrophobic and exclude ions. Cells incorporate ions into larger molecules and prevent the formation of ionic bonds.
